kybearfuzzI wish I had paid more attention to the date. I'd have tried to have been out of the office during today's blood drive. There is nothing like the semi-annual reminder that I am not allowed to give.
One of my coworkers named Roy went around after giving, trying to convince others in the office to give. In an office of 100 people, we only had 13 donate, which actually is pretty lame. Figuring now is as good a time as any to let him know, I pulled Roy aside to explain to him why I couldn't give. He took the news of my gayness well. He said he suspected, mostly because of my lack of girl dating and my unusual plethora of male online buddies. I explained that it was why I never asked him to play softball on my team (gay league).
He went on about an episode of The Office about a gay employee. He was pretty much laughing by the end of the conversation. Always a good sign, I think. At least he wont be bugging me about donating next time.
After working a little late, I went to get my Christmas cards printed at Kinko's, visited the comic book shop, and pick up Greek for dinner. And OMG! There are some seriously bearded cute guys at Kinko's!

Re: Confused
Date: 2006-11-09 05:32 pm (UTC)I have never liked needles and have always used that as my excuse to not give blood. When I have given blood for routine tests, I hate every minute of it. I have to explaine that you can't use a regular needle as my veins are slippery an d you have to use a butterfly to get blood, yada yada...
what evah!
btw...yer woofy....jus' sayin!
Hugs and thanks for the info.
